We visit the lakes once a year, and ever since finding this place 4 years ago we have made sure we return every time we are up that way. Beer is excellent quality and reasonably priced. Staff are also very knowledgeable on the ales stocked. This pub is dog friendly as well which is a bonus and always has the... More

We have just spent three nights at the watermill with our 2 year old Labrador. We stayed in room 1 which was exceptionally clean, nicely decorated and had one double bed and one pull out bed. The room would be fine for 2 adults and two kids. Breakfast was an excellent home cooked full english and great to fill up... More

I booked a one night stay here as a suprise for my husband for his birthday. We arrived around 2.30pm and were shown to our room without delay. The room was very nice with a nice bathroom, tv and coffee/tea making facilities. We had lovely weather and went on a very long walk that afternoon before coming back for our... More

Went here on Sunday for a late lunch good menu and specials board lovely pint , nice surroundings good place to stop of going in or out of the lakes for a tasty snack or meal. We are local to the lakes and I do like to help these pubs promote good food and drink.

There's one area of the bar reserved for dogs which is great but the area is big enough that the dogs aren't in top of one another. The staff were brilliant bringing treats and biscuits for my collie. The food we had here was delicious my... More

Stayed here for our wedding anniversary with our 7 month old springer spaniel. I cannot fault it one bit. rooms were very clean, light and airy. Staff were very friendly and the food in the restaurant was faultless! Our dog was welcome in the bar and also whilst we ate. we can't wait to come back!!!

Great food, good quantity, quick service and reasonably priced. Our children chose chicken nuggets from the kids menu and they were real chicken chunks. The kids loved them. I was really glad I'd looked on Tripadvisor before deciding on which restaurant to eat at. This was a great find. It was right next to the road, but I might not... More

Had eaten here before but never stayed. Our room (4) was somewhat small but had everything that was needed. Food was good enough but I felt that it was not so good as it used to be, could have done with a bit more seasoning, something was missing. Breakfast was O.K but they had run out of a couple of...
